Oklahoma Historical Society

In 1893, before Oklahoma was officially a state, members of the Oklahoma Territory Press Association founded the Oklahoma Historical Society. The OHS now has 35 museums and historic sites throughout the state, and strives to preserve and perpetuate the history of Oklahoma and its people by protecting, documenting, and sharing that history. The OHS Oral History Collections include more than 7,500 recorded interviews on a wide range of Oklahoma’s history.
